VISITATION FOR ROBBIE will be at Myrhum Patten Funeral Home (1315 W Washington St. - West Bend, WI  53095) on Saturday, May 6 from 1:00 - 3:00 PM.  

Robert P. “Robbie” Thomas, age 26 of West Bend passed away unexpectedly on December 23, 2022. Robbie was born on September 19, 1996 to Peter Thomas and Natasha (nee Herdt) Wachtl.

Robbie graduated from West Bend West High School in 2015. He was employed briefly with Kwiky Lube and then with Pace Industries for two years in die cast repair. He was an incredibly hard worker making sure to provide for his family. Robbie loved traveling and was also an avid gamer and greatly enjoyed playing games with his younger brother.

Robbie was the most compassionate, sensitive and loving person anyone had the joy of knowing. He will never know how deeply he will be missed and forever loved.

The greatest moment of his life is when his son Eli was born. Never a prouder father could there be. He enjoyed and cherished every moment with him. Eli is his greatest achievement and legacy. To Mom and Dad you will ALWAYS  be our "Budro".

Those Robbie leaves behind to adore and cherish him are his parents, Natasha (Kevin) Wachtl and Peter Thomas; son, Eliyas Thomas; brothers, Nicholas Jacobs and Brandon Thomas; his sister, Shannon Thomas; nephew, Noah; maternal grandmother, Dawn Herdt; great-grandmother, Phyllis Weihert; and special friend, Sheila Pilkington-Beltz as well as her children, Leon, Dante, and Sage with whom he was like a father. He is also survived by many aunts, uncles, cousins, relatives and friends.  

Robbie is preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, James Herdt; and paternal grandparents, Roland and Heidi Thomas.
